When I heard about the necro class in GW2 i was all, “OMG! I am so there!”

Now I am left wondering…

Where?

Where are my skeleton armies!
Where is my Zombie apocalypse!
Where are all my Ghoul friends! (ok i apologized for that last one)

instead i got
rat looking thing with people face
another bug looking thing
a worm
ghost bug (close! but not good enough)

and do not get me started on the flesh golem!

Everytime i see that thing i think, “omg Lady Gagas outfit has gone feral and is eating people!”

anyway my point is these pets suck! Necromancer needs to necromance these pets are more like a Reanimator.

The End

Uh, they look pretty similar to minions in gw1 imo, a little more goofy, but for the most part, not that odd.

Sorry, this aint diablo man

Anyone else remember minion factory and the time before limit on undead in gw1? having 50 minions was wayyyyy to broken, and made the game a cake walk.

Even when they reworked it into having up to 10, minions were still really strong and pretty much one of the best necro specs in pve.

I think they nerfed minions to hard in gw2, but I can understand why they wanted to tone them down more.

What are those minions you speak of? All we have are non combat Mini pets.

PVE necro is still awesome. Pvp is where necro really suffers. My minions are great in PVE, but wvw? Just a way for people to rally.
Lame minions are lame.

Well Someone said they looked kinda like this in GW1 too (haven’t played it myself)… So I don’t think you will get your Skeletons and whatnot But I want a change of their looks at least….. Like you said, they doesn’t look much like Necro minions….

But that’s the small problem right now… ArenaNet have to focus on fixing the 1 billion bugs about Necro’s first…. There are so many I can’t count them…..

Have ArenaNet even spoken about the Necro’s yet ? It’s the most broken profession by far, and some of the things should at least have been fixed already, lets hope they are planning a big change soon….

I want the Minions to get buffed, changed skin and most of all that they add a control-bar for our pets, so that we can actually use them tactically, not just as an army of brainless things that die after 1 second…..

Ranger sucks!
They got nerfed so badly

Warrior sucks!
Missing their 100B means death

Guardian sucks!
All their attacks are support and building power gets them killed fast

Elementalist sucks!
They are limited and have barely any viable builds

Engineer sucks!
They have bad damage

Mesmer sucks!
They have kitteny PvE damage and their clones are useless in PvE

Thief sucks!
They die to easily no matter how they build

As you can see. Necromancer is the only viable class. You can build it with full power and it’ll still have a large health pool. Times 2.

If you mean the minions look about the same, they don’t. Horrors were vaguely humanoid that more resemble the current Golem. Fiends were little headless raptors. Personally, I prefer GW1 fiends, but I’m okay with GW2 minions (human-skulled rats are creepy). I like the Shadow Fiend since it’s nice to see that necros are able to make minions out of more than just flesh and bone. Wurms look nice, but I don’t use them often.

If you mean in the same art style, I’d generally agree. Although a lot in the first game were just made of bone, and several we have have exposed organs and the like. Which is cool.
